1967 Santa Rosa Mtns Humboldt Co. Nevada July 28-30 Arvey Journal July 30 has been a heavy snow year), so we doubt if Rosy Finches will be found here. The riparian growth seems less dense than downstream with fewer Willow thickets. The hillsides are drier with bushes of Artemesia, Potentilla (?), Lupine, mints, and other flowers and grasses. Up higher in the creek bottoms we see the forest edge out into upland meadows. Bumble bees are common in the mint flowers. Near the stream we collect Junco caniceps, Hydroicula ustulatus, Troglodytes troglodytes, Zonotrichia leucophrys, Empidonax. On hillside we collect Brewers Sparrow, and a Juvenile Empidonax. Birds noted are: Robins, Violet gnm. Swallow, Mountain Bluebirds Rufous Hummer, Flickers, Pines Jiskins. We collected a Lark sparrow on the way out, about 5 mi. N of Paradise Valley, off a fence post. Also got a Loggerhead Shrike in same area from a phone line. Left Paradise Valley for Sagehen at about 6 p.m., Arrived Sagehen at 12:30 A.M. Slept til morning. July 31 Back to Berkeley.
